Regarding being on waitlist...

<p>I couldn't enroll in my math20c class during my first class because all the sections were completely full. At this point if I register for my section, I will be #6 on the list. However my actual enrollment time is this Thursday at 8AM. (could be #15 by that time who knows...)
Is there a great possibility for me to get in? I heard that for math and some science classes, professors can still take waitlisted students in later.</p>

<p>There's a dance class I really want to take (tdmv3). There were originally 35 seats. Right now there are 24 people on the waitlist. Should I even bother being on waitlist? or should I consider taking other dance classes? (still have to be on waitlist though, maybe position 10)
I have no idea if dance teachers will eventually take extra students in later.</p>

<p>From my experience, about 10% of people in standard lectures drop. I have no idea about dance classes. You might want to email the professor.</p>
